[Evaluation of transfusion practice. Surveys for evaluating the practice of nursing care in transfusion medicine in four hospital sites].
In four medical centers, transfusion medicine care practices were evaluated by testing the nursing staff with a list of questions. The anonymous test evaluated the knowledge and transfusion practices, and in one of them the bed-side compatibility control procedure in particular. These tests showed failures in the labeling of tubes during phlebotomy for immuno-hematologic testing, in blood product conservation in the ward, and in bed-side compatibility testing which is not always carried out fully at the bed-side. These results, showed on which topics the teaching program should emphasize so as to improve the quality of blood transfusion in the medical centers according to legal obligations.
